I'd rather only include bug fixes in 1.5.1. Introducing these changes in the 1.5 branch would cause some valid client code to compile and run against 1.5.1 but not against 1.5.0, which may well cause unexpected issues down the line. However, I wouldn't mind doing a 1.6.0 release already pretty soon (during Q1). Would that work for Sling? BR, Jukka Zitting
